Research direction

Start with the GraphServiceClient retry request and the Microsoft Graph user-list-transitivememberof documentation linked in the issue. Review the SDK's existing documentation and error-handling references, then identify the retryable exceptions across the relevant pages. Done means the documentation provides a clear, accessible list or reference for application authors.

Description

enhancement

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to add my own retry logic into applicaitions that use the GraphServiceClient but I'm some trouble finding a list of the retryable exceptions I'm likely to find. Do you know where it is?

Describe the solution you'd like
Please add a reference or a list to the documentation such as this page: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/user-list-transitivememberof?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=python. I'm happy to run through multiple pages as long as the errors are listed out.

Describe alternatives you've considered
My searching skills are probably not the best but I can't find a list.
